Congratulations to STAIRS technical advisor and @GlobalSepsis President, Prof @TexKissoon for this much deserved honor bestowed by the University of the West Indies. We are proud to be working with you on strengthening #sepsis research across #Africa.

@RKaitiritimba and @WalimuNGO 's Dr. Bernard Opar speak with Hon. @HonAnifaKawooya, State Minister for Health in Charge of General Duties about #Sepsis, its incidence and mortality burden & the critical need for @GovUganda to step-up the response to #Sepsis #WorldPatientSafetyDay

@STAIRS_sepsis partners exhibiting at the #WorldPatientSafetyDay commemoration in Wakiso District, #Uganda - calling on @GovUganda to promote patient safety practices that focus on #Sepsis prediction and recogntion.

Commemorating #WorldPatientSafetyDay Sepsis is amedical emergency that affects people of all ages. Early detection and treatment are critical to saving lives. Know the signs:fever, confusion, rapid breathing, extreme weakness. Act fast—don't wait! #SepsisAwareness @STAIRS_sepsis

"Today, on #WorldSepsisDay, @walimu and @unhco join forces in a press conference to raise awareness about sepsis . They were joined by @ainbyoo the senior public relations officer of @MinofHealthUG and @rkalyes1 @Makerere @STAIRS_sepsis @LSTMnews @GlobalSepsis @AfricanSepsis

@ainbyoo from the @MinofHealthUG through mentorship, is raising awareness on healthcare-related infection - highlighting the drivers of #sepsis #WorldSepsisDay @GovUganda @WalimuNGO @STAIRS_sepsis @WorldSepsisDay @AfricanSepsis @GlobalSepsis

Dr Bernard Opar: #Sepsis can be prevented through handwashing, hygiene and vaccination. Any disease can cause #Sepsis. Awareness is key. #WorldSepsisDay @MinofHealthUG @WalimuNGO @Afidep @STAIRS_sepsis @WorldSepsisDay

https://t.co/nvOVjZ0uA6 Excellent press conference held in #Kampala #Uganda on #WorldSepsisDay by our colleagues @RKaitiritimba, @phaguma. #Sepsis is a "silent killer" and early recognition can help prevent deaths. @WalimuNGO @unhco @AfricanSepsis

CTDGH's director, Prof Esto Bahizire, has presented the STAIRS #Sepis project to the South Kivu authorities during the Inter Agency Coordination meeting chaired by the vice-governor of the South Kivu province on Wednesday August 7, 2024. @ucbukavu @STAIRS_sepsis @Patrickdemarie

Another partner from @STAIRS_sepsis has undergone the #EIDM training facilitated by @Afidep. This time the @UniversityArsi team brought together a group of 19 stakeholders to strengthen capacity for translating #sepsis research findings to policy in #Ethiopia.

Another @STAIRS_sepsis team underwent the evidence-informed decision-making (#EIDM) training by @Afidep last week. The @officialunth team acquired skills on evidence synthesis and stakeholder engagement to optimize the translation of our research outputs to policy in #Nigeria.

Last week, the @STAIRS_sepsis team in #SierraLeone underwent the evidence-informed decision making (#EIDM) training facilitated by @Afidep and hosted by @UniversityNjala to maximize key stakeholder engagement on advancements expected in #sepsis research over the coming years.

What a team!! Last week’s STAIRS Telemedicine workshop at @ChariteBerlin was a big success thanks to our champions from Ghana and Ethiopia, and invaluable support from @afemafrica‘s leadership!

Excited to be recognized by @gardp_amr as a potential partner for innovative research in the fight against antimicrobial resistance! STAIRS is addressing sepsis and synergizing with AMR research in Sub- Saharan Africa. @GlobalSepsis @gardp_amr at @ChariteBerlin

Exciting to see the @instituto_ins team in #Mozambique undergoing the evidence-informed decision making (#EIDM) training last week with @Afidep. This training will help to ensure optimal policy exchange and research transfer of evidence generated by future @STAIRS_sepsis studies.

What a great week learning from @Afidep about optimising #sepsis policy exchange through evidence-informed decision making (EIDM) with the @WalimuNGO-led team in #Uganda! This year, EIDM training will be conducted across @STAIRS_sepsis to maximise the network's research impact.

13.7 million people died from #Sepsis in 2019 #globally with #SubSaharanAfrica bearing the greatest burden of sepsis #worldwide having suffered 30% of these deaths. Time to ACT! #RHISSA #SepsisAwareness @MinofHealthUG @WalimuNGO @LSTMnews @STAIRS_sepsis @AfricanSepsis

And that's a wrap! @STAIRS_sepsis completed its 1st annual meeting in #AddisAbaba impeccably hosted by the @UniversityArsi Team and enjoyed by all. We worked hard, played hard and even met a celebrity (@HaileGebr)! @AfricanSepsis @AfricaCDC #sepsis #KeepClimbing

Félicitations à notre équipe de @ctdgh_ucb pour le lancement de @STAIRS_sepsis in #RDCongo! @AfricanSepsis @Patrickdemarie
